I recently gave a talk to undergraduate engineering students at U.C. Berkekey on advice for applying to graduate schools in the US. The talk is titled "How to Apply to Graduate School and Fail to Get Admitted." The title is intended to be humorous. The audience was one of the most engaging that I have ever encountered and there were lots of requests for the slides.
The Mechanics of Materials and Structures research group at Ghent University (Belgium) is recruiting 5 PhD/postdoc researchers in the field of experimental and computational mechanics of composites. There are 5 positions:
Scholarship for PhD student working as a researcher in the project SONATA from National Centre of Science Poland.

In this book chapter we discuss some applications of algebraic topology in elasticity. This includes the necessary and sufficient compatibility equations of nonlinear elasticity for non-simply-connected bodies when the ambient space is Euclidean. Algebraic topology is the natural tool to understand the topological obstructions to compatibility for both the deformation gradient F and the right Cauchy-Green strain C. We will investigate the relevance of homology, cohomology, and homotopy groups in elasticity.
We currently have one opening for postdoc position at the Unviersity of Manitoba, Canada in the area of multiscale modeling on High-entropy alloys and functional graded materials.
Supervisors: Dr. Nan Wu and Dr. Chuang Deng (nan.wu [at] umanitoba.ca, chuang.deng [at] umanitoba.ca)
Fellowship: 33000 CAD/year with 2 year period
The coming ICTAM will be held in Milan, August 23-28, 2020.
Professor K. Kishimoto and myself have been mandated by the Chairs to organize the following thematic session:
SM07 Impact Mechanics and Wave Propagation
We hereby invite our colleagues to submit their abstract and make this session a real success!

Aqueousmethylcellulose solutions are fascinating inverse-freezing materials, known to reversibly form gels upon heating. Recently, these materials have been found to undergo this endothermic solidification upon impact. The imapct-induced solidification was shown to occur in the microseconds’ timescale, setting the path for examining their functionality for shockabsorption purposes.
We have opening for two Ph.D. students in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (Multiscale Modeling of Materials Lab) at New Jersey Institute of Technology. Applicants with background in solid mechanics, material science and engineering are encouraged to apply. For further information please refer to our website. If you are interested, please email me at fatemeh.ahmadpoor [at] njit.edu with your most recent CV.
